As we get closer to the winter months, we are seeing many fragrances hit the market that will make this a winter to remember. FlowerbyKenzo Winter Flowers will be available starting in October and should be a hit among those looking for a feminine perfume with a subtle floral scent.

Their original fragrance was released in 2000, and though similar, this fragrance seems to be a lot fresher and a little sweeter. When you first smell FlowerbyKenzo Winter Flowers, you will recognize how this fragrance reminds of flowers that persist into the winter months and stick around even after the first flakes of snow have fallen. That powdery and innocent scent has been achieved with perfection.

Hellebore rose is the ingredient that gives this perfume the wintertime aroma. The other components are mandarin and absolute vanilla, with the latter being responsible for the powder-like scent.

Also known as the Christmas rose, the Hellebore rose is originally from the mountains of Europe. This flower, which is actually in the buttercup family, has been used for spiritual and medicinal uses for thousands of years.

If you are interested in FlowerbyKenzo Winter Flowers, you should act quickly because this will be a limited edition release. The fragrance will come in a cheerful bottle and will be packaged in a classy box that features a mostly white design with sprinkles of silver and gold.

Once released in October, expect FlowerbyKenzo Winter Flowers to cost approximately $65 USD for a 1.7 ounce bottle. The joyful design and the unforgettable aroma make this fragrance a perfect present in the upcoming holiday season.

Notes are Bulgarian rose, Parma violet, Mandarin, Violet leaf, Mimosa, Camellia, Hellebore rose, Patchouli, Absolute vanilla and white musk. Information and photo compiled from Kenzo press release.

Victoria’s Secret may be more known for the lingerie and beauty products, however they have also dipped into the world of fragrance quite often. Very Sexy Dare is the latest perfume from Victoria’s Secret and it was unveiled to the world in New York this week.

Supermodel Marisa Miller was selected by Victoria’s Secret to become the face of this new perfume. Miller, who is from Santa Cruz, California, has emerged as one of the most sought after models in the world over the last several years. She has appeared in numerous Victoria’s Secret commercials and has been a fixture in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue since 2002.

Miller was on hand during the unveiling of Very Sexy Dare at the Victoria’s Secret Store at Herald Square in New York City earlier this week. The fragrance, which is packaged in pretty purple, is already gaining positive reviews. Very Sexy Dare utilizes a combination of citrus and woodsy scents to create a perfume that is perfect for fall. Not only does it live up to its “sexy” moniker, it does so in a laidback yet unmistakable manner with help from the intermingling of Grapefruit Wood, Blood Orange and Freeshia.

As Victoria’s Secret promotes this new fragrance, expect to see a lot more of Marisa Miller. She has recently been working even more with the company, even appearing on a runway for the first time in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2007. Miller was also named a Victoria’s Secret Angel in 2007, which put her in a select group of company with Heidi Klum, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Karolína Kurková, Selita Ebanks, Izabel Goulart, Miranda Kerr and Doutzen Kroes.

If you are looking to buy cologne for someone as a gift, Cool Water is consistently one of the more popular colognes for men on the market. Loved for its freshness and sporty air, Cool Water is for many around the world an all-time favorite, with men everywhere appreciating its crisp scent.

Davidoff, maker of the hit cologne Cool Water, is an international Swiss company specializing in luxury goods like fragrances, watches, wallets, neckties, and more – although for many years the company specialized in tobacco products alone. Davidoff has its origins in the 1930s, when a Russian emigrant Zino Davidoff opened a tobacco shop based in Geneva, Switzerland. The connoisseur’s parents had owned a shop in Kiev, before they were forced to flee persecution at the hands of the Russians. Even though it wasn’t until the latter part of the 20th century that Davidoff began manufacturing fragrances, its venture was met with considerable success.

Cool Water has been manufactured by Davidoff since 1992, and yet with almost 20 years on the market the scent is beloved to this day. Its main components, which some say represents a “fresh new approach to men’s scents,” include a simple blend of lavender, menthe, iris, and musk. The result is an easy-going, subtle, and invigorating scent that is also very masculine.

At StrawberryNET, you can find a variety of Cool Water and other Davidoff colognes, after shave products and gift sets. These items are very affordable and the website offers a terrific selection.

Recently unveiled is former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham’s new fragrance, “Signature,” which launches in stores around the world this month. Two versions are to be sold: Beckham Signature for Her and Beckham Signature for Him. Unlike the Beckhams’ previous market launches, the fragrance will only be available in prestige department stores.

Victoria was spotted in the Harvey Nichols store in Manchester on August 29, schmoozing with fans and signing autographs as part of the perfume’s launch. There is already plenty of buzz around the new fragrance, partially because of the world’s fascination of anything that has to do with Victoria or her soccer star husband David Beckham.

Developed by perfumer Sylvie Fischer, Beckham Signature for Her is a fruity floriental that contains notes of anise flower, candy apple, orchid, heliotrope, vanilla, patchouli, amber, and musk. The perfume embodies Victoria’s femininity, sexy attitude and strength.

Beckham Signature for Him was developed by Beatrice Picquet, and the scent is a fresh woody oriental that features mandarin, watermelon, marine notes, lantana, white amber, patchouli, moss, juniper berry, and cypress. The fragrance intends to capture David’s masculinity, ambition and elegance.

The Signature line is not the first scent released by Victoria Beckham. Intimately Beckham perfume hit the stores months ago. However, “Signature” promises to be a classy – and higher priced – departure from her previous endeavor.

Anna Sui, part of a younger crop of designers, has created a new fragrance to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the company’s in house production of decorative cosmetics.

Ever since her start in the fashion industry in the early 1990s, Sui has been known as a polyglot never afraid of embarking on new ventures. Most recently, the designer had the high honor of being named by Time Magazine as one of the top five fashion figures of the decade.

Sui’s Night of Fancy Perfume is a definitively floral fragrance. It is often described as starting strong with the fruit-filled scent of blueberry and grapefruit leaves mixed with a hint of strawberry, only to give way to Madagascan jasmine and Sambac Jasmine absolute. The so-called base notes of the fragrance include olibanum, Cashmere, and a hint of milkshake. The result? Some would say, complimentarily, a “sophisticated chic” fragrance.

The perfume is sometimes described as a follow-up to Sui’s 2007’s Flight of Fancy. Sui’s latest comes in a purple bottle with a subdued rectangular body that invites close inspection. The lid – topped with an extravagant peacock, also purple, with wide-open feathers – hints at a decidedly romantic and evocative aura.
